Must be on a different account than I am - i've never run out of work with Amphion!
.
Current Amphion employee...I'm very happy. The part of Amphion I work with has no faxes, lists,s
minor demographic work..superb QA and feedback. Fellow MTs on same account are more than willing to help and now they also have mentor program. My pay is what they said. They do have different pay for different levels. 
I've tried many, many nationals. Amphion is the only one
that I truly like. I think if you go to their website or check the Job Seekers board, there will be a rundown of their available benefits. They've given me everything I have asked for. I never run out of work. They don't pound me with ESLs all day long either.
I've been at Amphion for a little over a month now
and LOVE it!
I love Amphion! I've only been there 2 months now....
but am very happy. They are extremely helpful. Any concerns I have had (which have been only minimal things) have been addressed very quickly. A week after I was on my account, I hadn't complained at all, but got an email from my boss that said they had decided that we had to do a little more info screen input so they were adding a 3% differential to my base pay for that account! The benefits are good. I would definitely consider them if I were you.
Amphion always has work. nm
Amphion work
There is tons of work, but their new account absolutely stinks as far as inputing a lot of data in the headers which you are not paid for.
Does Amphion have SE work?
x
Believe me, Amphion is NOT out of work.
Maybe just one person on one account. If that one account runs out, there are plenty more accounts there. All anybody has to do is speak to their supervisor.
I work for Amphion right now...sm
What do you want to know specifically? I like it most of the time. I don't think it's any worse than anything else out there. You have to stick to your schedule daily but you get to set it on your own when you start, not just taking what shift they want to assign to you, so that part is nice. Pay is always on time, direct deposited.
Anyone work for Amphion?
I tried to search MTStars for it, but can only find postings from 2005. Any new info would be helpful. Is their pay competive? Do they offer equipment, and what kind of platform do they use? Do they have any VR? TIA!!
Anyone work for Amphion? Would like to know if you are
happy there. How does the cpl compare with other companies? Workload? PTO? etc.

You must work at Amphion
bah
Amphion has lots of work
I would very much like to talk with you and offer my assistance regarding your concerns of overhiring and lack of work. Something must be amiss and I would like to solve your dilemma yet today. We have lots of work, are still recruiting cream of the crop MTs, and pride ourselves on treating our team members fairly.

Have things gotten better at Amphion? Is there work now? nm
s
I currently work at Amphion and would have to agree...
with what was said about the demographic information. I have been there for a few months--looking again---, and I find that the demographic information required is overwhelming after a while. I usually can do AT LEAST 250 and even 300 lines per hour, but with this company, I have only been able to get to 180-200 lph no matter how hard I try. They do have a lot of residents also. As far as being flexible--not really for me. I also think the pay scale is a bit low--not even 8 cents per line.
Amphion is mostly clinic work. NM

I love Amphion & never run out of work
.
If you work for Amphion please read
I think my post got lost in the shuffle down below. Pleeeeeze somebody I need an answer. Just email me if you like.
Can anybody tell me how long it took you to get up to production speed at Amphion. I have been here three months and still nowhere close to where I was at at MQ. I can't go back to MQ, too much going on there. I need to get another job or get parttime somewhere unless somebody can tell me that I can get up to where I need to be. I have alot of experience but this platform and demographic stuff is killing me. TIA
Amphion Work Load/QA
I have never been on these chats before but in checking all of them out I am in quite disbelief. I see people complaining about having to do OT and QA issues if you have a bad QA. Are you seriously kidding? You have a job at home, a computer given to you, and you are there if your kids need you, are sick, etc. You don't pay for gas, don't have to worry about the weather, or OT at an actual office. Most people out there are looking for a good company and now people are complaining about having too much work. This is a first for me because in my situation I always have bills, things cropping up for school and X-mas coming up as do most people I know. Remember what do you have and how good you do have it.
Can anyone fill me in on what type of work Amphion has?
Is it a lot of ESL, and if so how bad/good are the accounts they have?
Why are you working 60 hours, when you can work 40 at Amphion?
Just curious as to why you would continue to work 60 hours a week, if you can work 40 hours at Amphion and make more money? Why have you not gone full time with Amphion? Again, just curious. I do not want to start anything.
I agree - Amphion's the best company to work for
f
Amphion is a great company to work for!
Great accounts, I have one primary that keeps me busy. The people are great to work with.
I don't work at Amphion but it's amazing that they expect
nm
Amphion just seemed like a good place to work
I don't like to job hop and between the 2 Amphion seemed better but I have misgivings now and afraid I will be let go. Do they let people go if they don't meet the line requirements?
If you like a great work environment - Amphion is it!
I could talk for hours about the wonderful attitudes and great hours and references and supervisors...but suffice it to say that Amphion has been a blessing for the 2-1/2 years I've been with them.
I work M-F, can take off early for football games or doctor appointments, as long as I get it in before the pay period is up (and it's approved, can't just leave the computer, obviously). They have study groups for CMT, a message board, IM is always available for questions/problems, the IT department is top notch and friendly, trainers are a dream, the work is always there and your account does happen to run dry, there's plenty of other accounts to keep you busy.
They're a dream come true. I've been with 5 other companies (national and private) and I honestly never see myself leaving Amphion. It's like a 2nd family - and they really cares about you.
Good luck in your decision - if you decide to come to Amphion, WELCOME! :)
And wherever you choose - congratulations!!
Amphion doesn't make you work weekends
or nights. They're a great company, and I hear they're hiring.
I work at AMphion part-time and make as much there in 20 hours as I do at my FT job in 40

Amphion's nonpay work of data entry is discussed with every post

Of course there's plenty of work at TT, you've got MDI-MDs work!!!
YOU NOW HAVE MDI-MD'S ACCOUNTS.
WE HAVE BEEN STARVING AND SCRAMBLING AND UNABLE TO PAY BILLS FOR TWO MONTHS, BUT, YES, Transcend DEFINITELY HAS PLENTY OF WORK.
No offense, Deb. MDI-MD is the one that sold out. Can't blame Transcend for trying, but PLEASE do NOT come in her touting how much work Transcend has when it is the work the MDI-MD MTs have been ROBBED OF for months now.
That's insensitive and quite frankly probably not the best foot to get off on with MDI-MD'ers.
I'm walking anyway. MDI-MD was too underhanded, sneaky and self-serving during this entire transaction.
I certainly hope they do indeed reap what they have sown.
I've done PRN work for them
They're a small MT company with decent people who will work with you, especially regarding having life outside of MT. They use ICs rather than employees and are very flexible as long as work is in by deadline.
Dictators vary in difficulty but they'll work with you on what you're best at and won't jumble you continuously.
As a subcontractor, you don't get paid until they do, but their accounts pay steady and they keep in touch with you when checks arrive for each account and send them out promptly. Once you get rolling, you'll get a steady stream of income.
They don't off-shore and they're honest.
Thanks. Have they been low on work since you've
nm
I've got a ton of work, on OT, It may be
slow a day or two next week due to the holiday, but then we'll probably be on OT again.
All's I know is, I've never been out of work for more than 5 minutes...
90% of the time I'm on my main account and have something like five backups. Also, I asked my manager to train me on the account that's always super backed up (like 200+ reports every day) so I'd have that as back-up, also.
Running out of work is gonna happen sometimes; it's the nature of the beast. And like I said, it's never lasted long. I'll take the teeny little hiccups in work flow over the low hospital pay and bitchy co-workers/managers any day of the week.
In 5 years I've never had a day without work, though
have had probably 4 days of about half my usual line count, due to the hospital system being down or due to hurricanes, but never went completely without work. My company isn't hiring though.
I've been there for 1-1/2 years and have never run out of work. nm
:]
Don't you still work for QT? You've posted
several times in the past, always seeming to want to get something started.
I've NEVER run out of work in 9 years.
hellish shift, all the reports everybody else sends back, it's a dirty job, and love the $
I've never said there isn't work, it just depends on your
account. But I'm willing to put in the time, adjust my schedule to when there may be work, etc. and have multiple accounts and still can't get lines in (and I wasn't the only one) then it doesn't matter now much OT is available on another account.
I've got work available at almost all times of the day,
but I am on Lanier accounts. I think the wav accounts have a lot more people on them fighting for the work. Maybe there are people on your accounts doing way above their commitment. That would throw things off all around. Perhaps you should inquire about it. If you try all times of the day and still don't find work available, they should give you another account. Good luck. I know it is frustrating running out of work. I have other accounts that do that and it gets so tiresome. Some days I just hate this whole industry. These tight TATs are the root of all the work flow problems. 
I've not had any problems with low work....sm
in fact, my 3 accounts have been on OT for a few weeks now.
I've never had to work on a holiday...
but I guess it all depends on who you're working for.
I've been there 5+ years and have had plenty of work.
I would occasionally work on weekends when I needed extra $$ and there is no work on the weekends now. Mondays also tend to be a little slow because they are keeping a tighter TAT and we aren't playing catch-up from the weekend, but even then I still get my lines.
Are you a long-time QTer and not getting your lines?
I've only ever heard of them having plentiful work
and that's been my experience. Is this a new issue?
I've been with them far, far longer than you, and believe me, work is not bountiful. You are very
One year, big deal. You have no idea. You won't be happy for very long.
I've been out of work 2 times today
7 a.m for 1-1/2 hours, and now. I don't count the 1 or 2 reports that slip in. I've worked exactly 3-3/4 hours today in my 8 hour shift.
We have work. I've been in your shoes though with other jobs
They are screaming desperately, I get the job, and the second day of the job, there is no work so I sat there all afternoon twiddling my thumbs. By day 3, when I was told there was only 3 reports to do, I quit. Life's too short to waste my time and energy.
I've decided that I'm not going to work for them any longer. sm
I never signed anything that obligated me to the fee. That's the point. I only found out with the direct deposit printout, and I had to then question the expense. I've been an IC for years, and never have I been asked to pay for the use of the software a company installed on my computer. I provide my computer to use, yes, but a company has to supply the software, and no one has ever required a charge for that. I should have been afforded the opportunity at interview to either accept or reject the job based on that requirement. Since the subject of a license fee was never broached during the interview process and the contract did not specify that I would pay for a license fee, I accepted the position based upon the contract terms. As far as they have a right to charge since I am an IC, I feel they have no right that is not specified within the contract boundaries. Am I wrong with this thinking?
So is the work load at MDI-FL picking up? I've talked to them before....sm
about coming to work for them when it does. They said they'd get in touch with me and so I really don't want to contact them back first. However, I'm probably going to move on if I don't hook up with them soon. I've seen here that their work load is down and perhaps they've overhired (?), but they'd be my first choice of where to go from here. So is their work picking up, especially the VR?
